Brahms: Streichquartette, Op. 51

A central fixture in the world of string quartets for the past 30 years, the Zehetmair Quartett's ECM recordings of Schumann, Hindemith, Bart?k and Hartmann have received luminous praise. Gramophone lauded their Schumann as "Record of the Year," while the Sunday Times described their Hindemith and Bart?k performances as "playing of huge finesse in both pieces," calling them "a real benchmark."
